Could that be because Send to Kindle converts and sends to the Kindle as AZW files? (That's written on the sending page of Send To Kindle)
Upon further checking I see that there is an exception that personal documents delivered in the old MOBI/AZW format (not KF8/AZW3) still have their cover thumbnails extracted from the book by the kindle firmware and so bypass the firmware change that I documented.
